The Ei208 is a stylish CO alarm that can be wall or ceiling mounted and (due to its flat base) can also be free standing. The detector has an intelligent 'low volume test' which allows the user to test the units functionality without sounding at 85dB like most other alarm units on the market. As carbon monoxide can temporarily spike due to vehicle exhaust fumes or a gas cooker striking up, CO detectors only sound the alarm after a specific amount of time has passed – however, the Ei208 has a pre-alarm feature where the red alarm LED will start to flash as soon as CO is detected at concentrations of 43ppm or higher.

Good monitor, poor quality screws for fixing it. Monitor looks fine and load alarm, but 'don't spoil the ship for a ha'p'orth of tar'. This monitor is sold for caravan and boat use but the screw fixtures provided with it are not corrosion resistant.

It is extremely dangerous, binding itself to the haemoglobin in red blood cells and preventing them from transporting oxygen around the body.
According to statistics released by the Office for National Statistics, throughout England and Wales, there are an average of over 60 deaths every year due to accidental exposure to carbon monoxide - up to 45% of which occur in the home.

Figures from the Department of Health and Social Care show that there are around 4000 cases of carbon monoxide poisoning treated in A&E Departments across England each year - even mild cases can exacerbate existing conditions such as respiratory illnesses, leading to fatalities.
According to the Chief Medical Officer (CMO) for England, around 200 per year are hospitalised in England and Wales as a result of accidental carbon monoxide poisoning.
A study of more than 27,000 properties by the Liverpool John Moores University, supported by the Merseyside and West Midlands Fire Services, found that less than 10% of homes have a single carbon monoxide alarm to protect occupants from this deadly gas.
